And why some people may crossover to Trump.

"Donald and Bernie have very similar trade positions and vaguely similar foreign policy stances.
If you voted for Bernie based on social justice or racial politics (not that any of those races voted for him in the primaries) then there's not much crossover between Bernie and Trump. If you voted for fixing our trade deficits, helping American workers, punishing currency manipulators, going after tax-dodging international corporations, and keeping boots off the ground in the middle east, then there's a lot to consider come November"
